Good Afternoon!
Please find attached the SOA for the _ credits. They have actually already issued the invoice for the credits and I have submitted
payment. How long do you think the letter will take to get sent back to us? That will determine if they need to void the invoice and return
payment or not. Thank for your help and patience with this and us!!!

Thank you for that information!
In the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rules, parts of the residence that impact Zone 1 are allowable with mitigation.
Additionally, impacts other than the residence or necessary infrastructure (like a workshop) are allowable with
authorization (in Zone 1 or in Zone 2). It appears that about half of the workshop is in Zone 1 and half is in Zone 2.

Mitigation for Zone 1 is 3:1 and Zone 2 is 1.5:1. Based on the information provided, it appears that you will need a total
of 765 sq ft of mitigation credits (ratios already applied and added). You will need to seek mitigation from a private
mitigation bank. If none have credits available, then the NC Division of Mitigation Services can be contacted. For a list
of private mitigation banks, please go to our website here: https://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resources/water-
quality-permitting/401-buffer-permitting/nutrient-offset-buffer-mitigation-program . There should be a link to a list of
approved mitigation banks near the top of the page. You're looking for one in the Neuse River basin that serves HUC
03020201 under "Buffer Credit Service Area". The list will have the most up-to-date contact information for the
bank(s). Once you've contacted them, you will need to provide a Statement of Availability from the bank.
I will be out of the office next week, but I will return the week of June 27th if you have any questions.
Thank you!

Good afternoon!
I have attached a copy of the survey which shows the current deck, storage room and shed. I am also attaching a copy
of the design plan to show what the addition will consist of. The addition will be an additional bedroom, bathroom,
laundry room (which the house currently lacks), and a small living room. I have answered your questions below in red.
I hope you're having a great day!

I am beginning my review of the above referenced project for the above referenced project, and I need some more
information.
1.What is included in the new addition? Are there additional bedrooms (how many)? Living room, laundry room,
etc.? Is an uncovered deck or a covered patio included? Some details as to what exactly is included in the new
addition would be helpful to determine if the impacts fall under "necessary infrastructure" for the residence.
If it is easier to show, please feel free to send in a drawing or sketch (or you can sketch on a copy of the plat
included if that is easier). We are trying to minimize the impacts that may require mitigation in Zone 1. See the
attached survey.
2.I'm not understanding where the existing deck is on the plat. Is that the diagonally hatched area surrounding the
existing house? It is shown on the survey I have attached. The patio shown on the design plans will be done
with permeable pavers as to not add to our impervious surface area on the lot.
3.Is the 50 square foot storage building mentioned in the application the 68 sq ft "Frame Storage Building" shown
on the left side of the property? That building is outside of the riparian buffer. The framed storage room is
depicted on the survey that I have attached.
4.1 appreciate your architect showing Zones 1 and 2 of the buffer (30 and 50 feet from the stream) on the plat.
Could they please provide the square footage of the addition within each of those zones? I'm looking for the
square footage of the yellow part and the purple part in the below snippet. There is 583 square feet in the 50'
buffer and 219 square feet in the 30' buffer.
Thanks,

Re Project: 1306 Wicklow Drive, Cary
This document confirms that Jeramie Kyle Hockman (Applicant) for the 1306 Wicklow Drive, Cary (Project) has
expressed an interest to utilize 765.00 Square Feet of Riparian Buffer Mitigation Credits from one of the following
banks, EBX-Neuse I, LLC Neuse Riparian Buffer Umbrella Mitigation Bank, RES Neuse Buffer and Nutrient Offset Umbrella
Mitigation Bank, RES Poplar Creek Buffer & Nutrient Offset Umbrella Mitigation Bank, EBX Upper Neuse Riparian Buffer
Umbrella Mitigation Bank, RES 2021 Neuse Umbrella Mitigation Bank, or RES 2022 Phase II Umbrella Mitigation Bank.
Specific bank sites that may be debited are Buffalo Branch, Selma Mill, Cedar Grove, Hatley, Bucher, Hannah Bridge, Stone
Creek, Meadow Spring, Uzzle, Poplar Creek, Polecat, Wolf King and Thunder Swamp Phase II Bank, all located in HUC
03020201. As the official Bank Sponsor, Environmental Banc & Exchange (EBX), attests to the fact that mitigation is
available for reservation at this time.
These mitigation credits are not considered secured, and consequently are eligible to be used for alternate purposes by
the Bank Sponsor, until payment in full is received from the Applicant resulting in the issuance of a Mitigation Credit
Transfer Certificate by the bank acknowledging that the Applicant has fully secured credits from the bank and the Banker
has accepted full responsibility for the mitigation obligation requiring the credits/units.
The Banker will issue the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate within three (3) days of receipt of the purchase price. Banker
shall provide to Applicant a copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate and a documented copy of the debit of
credits from the Bank Official Credit Ledger(s), indicating the permit number and the resource type secured by the
applicant. A copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate, with an updated Official Credit Ledger will also be sent to
regulatory agencies showing the proper documentation.
Please contact me at 919-209-1055 or [e-mail] if you have any questions.
Thank you!
